Magkano ang dangal mo? Kung si "Nicole" ka, rape victim eklavu chuvachoochoo, humigit kumulang $2000 lang o Pph 100,000.
“My conscience continues to bother me realizing that I may have in fact been so friendly and intimate with Daniel Smith at the Neptune Club that he was led to believe that I was amenable to having sex or that we simply just got carried away. I would rather risk public outrage than do nothing to help in ensuring that justice is served,” she said in her five-page affidavit.
Nicole said she wondered how she could recall her testimony that Smith kissed her lips and neck and held her breast inside the van, when witnesses told the court that she passed out and looked unconscious when he took her to the van.
“How could I have resisted his advances given this condition? Daniel Smith and I were alone on the third row of the van, which had limited space and I do not recall anyone inside the van who held my hand or any part of my body. What I can recall is that there was very loud music and shouting inside the van,” she explained.
“With the events at the Neptune Club in mind, I keep asking myself, if Daniel Smith wanted to rape me, why would he carry me out of the Neptune Club using the main entrance in full view of the security guard and the other customers. Why would the van park right in front of Neptune Club? Why would Daniel Smith and his companions bring me to the sea wall of Alaba Pier and casually leave this area that was well-lighted and with many people roaming around?” she added.
The victim, who reportedly flew to the US after receiving P100,000 for damages from Smith and terminating the services of her lawyer, also believes that if she was really raped by Smith, “he and his companions would have dumped me instead in a dimly lit area along the highway going to Alaba Pier to avoid detection.”-Philstar
Sabi ko na nga ba eh. Duda na ako noon pa man sa claim nya na ni-rape sya ni pareng Daniel Smith. Una, hindi gawain ng matinong babae ang magpakalango sa alak to the point na mawalan ka ng ulirat at mapagsamantalahan ng kung sino-sino lamang. Ginalugad ko din ang club scene nung kabataan ko, ngunit hindi ko pinabayaan ang sarili ko. Wala naman masama kung magpakasaya ka, lalo pa't wala kang pananagutan sa buhay, pero kailangan mo ding mag-ingat. Ikalawa, ang gwaping ni Daniel Smith noon huh. I'm sure kung gugustuhin nya eh marami syang makukuhang babae lalo pa't nasa Pinas sya.
Kung totoo man na pinagsamantalahan si "Nicole" ni Daniel, sana pinangatawanan na lang niya ang nauna nya nang salaysay. Sana nagkaron sya ng paninindigan. Dahil sa ginawa nyang pagbawi sa mga ibinintang nya sa pobreng sundalo, hindi lang dangal nya ang nawala, parang ibinenta nya na ang buo nyang pagkatao. Nagmukha lang tuloy syang echosera! Ewan ko ba, kapwa Pinay ko ang involved pero hindi ko makuhang maki-simpatya sa kanya.
Ano sa tingin mo?
